Is this Acne parka worth $850? Is it warm enough for Toronto winters? Am I better off buying Geos?

>> No.7158000

Yes
Yes

I'll buy it online if I do end up deciding to.
>>7158041
I'm 6'2. Height's not the issue, I just don't got that much dough.

Anyhow, it's better value than the ugly Canada Goose everyone seems to wear around here.

The model in the picture is 6'4 so definitely get the smallest one you can find. I'll probably buy directly from Acne's site.

Would it really? I just came to Toronto so I have no idea about the taxes and import duties. Definitely not willing to pay much more for it though.

>> No.7158224

>>7158197
i dont know. we recently, like last week, changed freetrade with europe.

I just ran this program, no idea if it is reliable.

If that's how much it turns out to be I'll pass. I wish I was in the US so I don't have to deal with this bs. btw, when would they hypothetically charge this amount? because on the checkout page it doesn't include any taxes or import fees.

6'1" is considerably taller than 5'10" especially when it comes to such a long fucking parka. I'd probably swim in it.

>> No.7158394

>>7158170
ok

>> No.7158890

It holds warmth very well, definitely worth the money if you like the design. Also, it's a very oversized fit, it's supposed to fit a bit larger than how it fits in the OP image.

i'm 5'5 can I pull this parka off

>> No.7159262

I saw this in Selfridges the other day. I wanted to try it on but it was chained up to the rail and I was too autistic to ask somebody to unlock it.

I'm 6'4 so I could probably pull it off. It's also filled with real goose down so it will be warm as fuck.

>> No.7159439

Yes, and after pulling it off you should give it to me.

really? but it has no down, so won't be warm enough. at 210$ i guess it looks almost comparable

but isn't anything at UO cheap versions for suburb kids, curated to look like the real stuff from like Acne?
